SUMMARY:Presentation on Christian Zionism
DESCRIPTION:Dr.Bruce Rigdon\, pastor\, scholar and faith leader\, will give a presentation and discussion on ” Christian Zionism “. One definition of the topic is a political and religious ideology that supports the state of Israel and the return of the Jewish People to the Holy Land. An intended goal of the session is to link how this thinking is linked to us as a congregation and how it effects our understanding of the current situation in the Middle East.
